How to register a compound and its batches

Select the structure and choose Object › Chemistry › Register compound. A new compound gets an ID such as ATH-000001 and this drawing becomes its batch ATH-000001-001.

Steps

  1. Select the structure.

  2. Choose Main menu › Object › Chemistry › Register compound.

  3. Athanor works out the Parent, the Salt form and the Batch, with the InChIKey. A new compound gets the next ID, such as ATH-000001, and this drawing becomes its batch ATH-000001-001.

  4. Fill in what you know: Name, Date, Amount, Purity, Density for liquids, Supplier or notebook, and Notes.

  5. Press Register.

A component that is not on the salt list is kept as part of the batch, not stripped silently, and the window says so.
